• Excellent datacenter management tool.
• Data transfer is amazing.
• Resource allocation features are fantastic.

• Firmware repository size limitations could be larger (was increased recently but still is only room for a few SPPs)
• Profile template updates flag all machines that haven't had their profile updated from the template, causing the dashboard to go red with warnings and can cause unnecessary concern
• OneView, while powerful isn't as user friendly as it could be

• Not much the product is very tricky to set.
• Some features configuration needs professional
• Managing imported big data across many platforms.

The hardware has fulfilled all of the promises that it made when we first acquired it. The only thing that would preclude this would be if the organization decided to holistically switch hardware vendors for reasons other than performance and feature sets.

While all similar offerings can achieve basically the same thing, HPE Synergy stands out against Cisco and Dell offerings with respect to manageability, ease of use and flexibility - HPE Synergy offers configurations groups of chassis to create logical enclosures that can be managed as a single entity and also blades in any slot can be plumbed and allocated as necessary to multiple uplinks. This is one level more flexible than the others which limits configurations of blades in a single chassis to similar uplink settings. Also, the HPE Synergy chassis itself supports 12 blades vs 10 in competitive offerings.
